  1. That sounds a lot more sensible as top drag cars use magnetos to supply the spark - perhaps it's the same here.

    I posted this quote a year or so back "The air fuel ratio in nitro cars is less than 1.7:1. The mixture is nearly solid liquid by the time the piston is at TDC of the compression stroke. Without that level of ignition, you run a high risk of hydraulic conditions in a cylinder. We count on the ignition to begin the combustion process so the piston can pass TDC without becoming stuck in a hydraulic state. The magnetos are both 44 amps, much like the power of an arc welder. It’s takes that much power to burn that much fuel. The ground straps on the spark plugs are often burned to nubs at the end of the run. It’s rather incredible.

  4. And it takes about 800-1,000 BHP just to run the supercharger. They’re incredible machines

  5. You’d probably be better off with a chisel or a blowtorch in this weather
     
  6. Your backside used to hover an inch off the toilet seat during the winter.
    Good leg work out.

  8. But when it was warm you could read the ads. Reading Izal a few times soon lost its charm

  14. Wish we'd had the choice of newspaper when visiting my Nan.
    Would have been far easier on the skin than the Izal.
